I'd be shocked if Deuce got any minutes whatsoever.

If Deuce is in the game then someone got hurt.


Multiple people. Several. Might take a bus accident on the way to the arena


If Ja is going off Thibs might get desperate. Otherwise yeah I shouldn't get my hopes up.

Season openers are overhyped and everyone overreacts but I get it. We're excited for a new season! But it's just 1/82 games. And opening on the road in Memphis is not easy. Grizzlies are going to be really good and could get that 50 burger and win their division. That being said, I'm begging Thibs and this team to please not get blown out. Please oh please don't get embarrassed! Nobody is expecting us to win this one (7.5 dogs) but please show up and make it competitive on national TV!

If you speak facts about Randle your supposed to be delusional but adding RJs name with Kobe Lebron Jordan is considered sane by you guys lol.

5.

But, luckily they don't have a stretch 4 with Jackson out, not unless that Euro kid can shoot, which he didn't seem to be able to do in the preseason.

They have a lot of guys out, we should honestly win this one if we pack the paint.

The Smashing Pumpkins and Jane’s Addiction are playing at MSG tonight while the Knicks are on the road. I saw em at the new UBS Arena, where the Islanders play now, last Friday and they were f*ckin great. UBS is a real nice place, so def check out a game or concert there at some point if you haven’t gone.

Yanks and Knicks gettin it on tonight though!

ALL. SYSTEMS. GO.

I am just hoping we see good Randle, and he plays more like he did in the preseason over how he played against the Grizzlies last year when he got punked.

They may have blocked out the part where Bane shoved Randle then dropped a bunch of 3s before Randle got ejected on the tv in Melozakistan

Ja Morant, Grizzlies punk Knicks at MSG; Julius Randle gets ejected

The Grizzlies physically punked the Knicks, beyond just using their speed advantage and using monster center Steven Adams to help grab 15 offensive boards.

Randle, who finished with 18 points and was one assist short of a triple-double, was ejected late after two technicals. His first infraction seemed to light a fire under the Grizzlies (36-18), who, at the time, were only leading by six midway through the fourth quarter.

Randle had wandered into Memphis’ huddle during a stop in play, which prompted Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane to intervene and shove Randle. Both were assessed technicals, and Bane buried a three-pointer on the next possession.

The Knicks never recovered. That six-point Knicks deficit turned to 11 in about one minute. Randle was assessed another tech for complaining to the officials with 31.5 seconds left and a defeat secured. It became the latest example of Randle losing his cool.

“You know us. You know how we play,” Jackson Jr. said about the Randle-Bane incident and ensuing trash talk. “We love that. It brings joy to us. That back-and-forth. That’s just what we like. So if you want to play that game, we can play that game.”

Added Morant, “Ain’t no running in the M [Memphis]. We climb up the chimney. … If you going to cry, what the babies gonna do?”

Earlier in the season after a defeat in Brooklyn, Tom Thibodeau fully defended Randle against the officiating. This time, the coach had no issues and Randle didn’t talk postgame.
